For a few years all i had was a talking heads tape in my car. Whenever i was out of fm radio range that would go on constant replay.

The eagles had such prolific songwriters. Meisner singing “Take it to the Limit” live was something special.


You just don't get song like this anymore

Released the year I was born.


I was 8 when this was released. Growing up in Southern California, the Eagles and the Doors captured that time period and that place so very perfectly for me. Makes me homesick every time I hear a song from either.

And new artists need to take a page from the Eagles....all of them, are some of the best songwriters to ever live.

While I have a very large range of music in my collection, there is only one band I would trade for all the rest; there was even a period of my life where I stopped listening to all other music, and really didn't miss it. I even traveled around to see them play as many times as I could.

It seems strange I didn't see anyone mention them, not even those who certainly dated themselves with their answers. After all, "They're a band beyond description, like Jehova's favorite choir......." ;)

Can i say Maynard as artist so I can get Tool, A Perfect Circle, and Puscifer??

Why, yes...yes you may. Maynard's talent (luck?) isn't just writing and singing, but finding singular musicians to work with.

My mind was blown yesterday when I watched a cover of Tool's "Lateralus" on YouTube, by a band that included brass instruments. They've had every kind of musical ensemble cover their work; Japanese Koto, string quartets, and even a very impressive rendition of "46 & 2" by a group of middle/high school students.

This song from this band is a guilty pleasure for me.
